名词 n.
  1. A female scribe. dated
    — We now have among the Scribes and Scribesses of the News a “Katie” and a “Katie-Did.” We confess to a tenderness for the name of Katie. It reminds us of the happy days of the not very distant past when we were fond of quoting to a certain Katie who now shares the joys and sorrows of Nosco these lines: “O tell me where did Katy live, / And what did Katy do? And was she very fair and young, / And yet so wicked too? Did Katy love a naughty man, / Or kiss more cheeks than one? I warrant Katy did no more / Than many a Kate has done.”
